Persistence of stratifications of normally expanded laminations (Q935360)

The author defines the concept of stratification of a lamination, and he studies the persistence of stratifications of normally expanded laminations. The material is presented in the following sections: Normally expanded laminations, stratifications of normally expanded laminations, structure of trellis of laminations and main result. The aim of this paper is to show that the stratification of normally expanded laminations are persistent. A main theorem: ``Let \((A,\Sigma)\) be a compact stratified space supporting a trellis structure \(T\). Let \(i\) be an \(T\)-controlled embedding of \((A,\Sigma)\) into a manifold \(M\). We identify \(A\), \(\Sigma\) and \(T\) with their image in \(M\). Let \(f\) be a \(C^1\)-endomorphism of \(M\) preserving \(\Sigma\) and satisfying for each stratum \(X\): {\parindent=7,5mm \begin{itemize}\item[(i)] \(f\) normally expands \(X\) and is plaque-expansive at \(X\), there exists a neighborhood \(V_X\) of \(X\) in \(L_X\) such that \item[(ii)] each plaque of \(L_X\) included in \(V_X\) is sent by \(f\) leaf of \(L_X\), \item[(iii)] there exists \(\varepsilon> 0\), such that every \(\varepsilon\)-pseudo orbit of \(V_X\) which respect \(L_X\) is included in \(X\). \end{itemize}} Then for every \(f'\) \(C^1\)-close to \(f\), there exists a \(T\)-controlled embedding \(i'\), close to \(i\), such that for the identification of \(A\), \(\Sigma\) and \(T\) via \(i'\), the properties (i), (ii) and (iii) hold with \(f'\). Moreover, the dynamics induced by \(f'\) on the space of the leaves of each strata of \(\Sigma\) is the same as the dynamics induced by \(f\). In particular, the stratification of laminations \(\Sigma\) is \(C^1\)-persistent.'' The author studies some particular cases, and he gives several examples. The present work is a summary of the author's thesis.
